Creative Light: Digital Techniques for Photographers in PS and LR

Details

David Julian is returning to the Seattle Area Photoshop Users Group to demonstrate some of the digital techniques he uses to breathe life and emotion into his photographs.

Sometimes our pictures need a little processing magic to make them match our vision.

We may want to craft something completely new from what we shot in camera, or a new look for a new series of images.

Let's dare to experiment, push the sliders and invite creativity!

Using Photoshop (and some Lightroom), Dave will show how many images can be greatly improved in layer-less Lightroom while others benefit from the precision of masks within the light-loving layers in Photoshop**.

There will be time reserved for Q+A. Software prizes will be raffled at evening's end, so do bring your lucky charm. To enter the raffle, members MUST sign in with email address and phone#.
